Custom Task Group and Task Exposure in the Project Schematic

You can use ACT to create custom task groups and custom tasks in the Workbench Project Schematic. Workbench refers to a task group as a system and to a task as a cell.

  • Task groups contain tasks. ACT-defined task groups are exposed as custom systems in the Workbench Toolbox so that you can add them to the Project Schematic in the same way as you add an Ansys-installed system.

  • The tasks in a custom task group can include both ACT-defined tasks and Ansys-installed tasks.

The following figure shows a Generic Mesh task group that takes an upstream mesh and passes it to a downstream Fluent task group. For more information, see Generic Mesh Transfer.
